Fig. Q is a, longitudinal .sectional View through the Ashaving mugrshowing thev arrrangement of the toilet articles stored -within themugandbase thereof, and w F 1g. 3 is a cross sectionalv'iewtaken on the vllneB-B ofFigg2. v n n L' Referring nowrto the drawings in which likecherzu'zters of reference designate siml60 iler parts in the variousviews, 10 designates a fountain .shaving mug having the bottom thickenedand reversely loowed to provide 'a hump 11, thefupper surface of whichis lsu'ostantiallysemifsphercalin'contonr 'and ex- "'55 vto :thecylindrical 'side ,wafllof the mug, Y y The lbottom of the mughetwejenjtjhe side `jwell rand., humpis downwardlyz curved, as shown at1.2, to providel a` concave 4annular T0 surface which coactswith theside wall and lthe hump in receiving toilet articles,v such es a farcepowder container 13j, a face lotion bottle 145,- and ya,kn-ock-downjshaving brush ycomprising a handle 15 andabrush component 7516 as well as other shaving necessities, such as chamois skin,7 etc. vThe hump is provided.v axially with u duct 1'7 through which yshavingcream from 'the magazine may lentery the mug.y Theduot is 80 closed atthe inner end by Aaremovaeble `stopper 18.' The purpose ofjthe humpisjto`spread the bristles 16 ofthe brush apart from the Vcenter 'outwardly"and thus vput the ycream from the duct well up into the bristles solthat 85 Iin eifecti've lather may be quickly produced.

A two-compartment cylindricalbase 19 is screwedonto the mug at theYbottom thereof.

V tlfansversefpartition 20 .is disposed substentially midway of thecylindrical `well of '90 the base and divides the base into an l'uA permagazine compartment adapted todae lled with a, supply ofshaving cream`suiiieient to last several monthsyand. a lower compartment adaptedtofreceive a containerfor the shaving 9b tools. The 'inner aceof themagazine compartment is threaded asshown at to engage similar threads 22on the wall of the m11 et the bottom thereof. A quarter turnolf t emagazine is -sullcient to eject a small 10o quantity of shaving creamthrough the duct 17 into the shaving mug after removal of the stopper,suilicient for a single shave, whereupon the magazine may be reverselyturned to prevent further escape of the shaving cream into the mug andthus economy Will be promoted.

Preferably, the shaving tool container comprises a base 23 having amarginalflange 24; which engages partment base and forms a grip topermit unscrewing of the container as well as forming a stop to limitadvance of the container into the lower compartment of the mug base 19.The container is provided with an unstanding flange 25 which is threadedexteriorly near the upper end, asshown at 26, to engage similar screwthreads 27 cut in the inner face of the cylindrical Wall 19 of the mugbase. The container is of sufficient height to hold a safety razor caseas Well as other shaving tools, such as tweezers, caustic stick, etc.

The shaving mug 10 is closed by means of a cover 28, the same having amarginal flange 29 adapted to seat upon an annular ring 30 formedintegral or otherwise secured to the wall of the mug. The flange is cutaway for a portion of its lengths to provide an elongated Ventilatingopening 30 which thoroughly ventilates the interior of the ,mug when thecover is closed and maintainsthe contents of the mug, such as the toiletarticles above enumerated, in a sanitary condition A mirror 31 issecuredpreferably to the inner flat surface of the cover in anypreferred manner and is of sufficient diameter to extend nearly to thecircumferential flange of the cover and is thus of sufficient size to beused as a shaving mirror when desired.

If desired, the screw thread connection between the shaving mug andcream magazine may be dispensed with and a sliding connectionsubstituted therefor, and the same is true for the screw threadconnection between the safety razor container and the base.

While a hump is illustrated in the drawing and described in thespecification, it is not essential to the fountain feature of theoutfit, since it is conceivable that the bottom of the shaving mug maybe even formed concave throughout instead of convexed to provide a hump,and where the humpr is dispensed with and a concavity utilizedin lieuthereof, obviously a greater storage space for toilet articles will beformed in the interior of the mug.

While the cover is shown equipped with a mirror on the inner surfacethereof, it is not essential that the mirror be so placed, since themirror might conceivably be placed on the outer surface of the cover,which in some instances would lend to the attractiveness of the outfitwithout departing from the spirit of the invention.

It will be observed that the travelers outfit the wall 19 ofthetwo-comhump in the bottom above described is extremely compact andattractive in appearance. Furthermore, all the necessities for shavingare carried thus in a single unitary structure. It will be also pointedout that the shaving outfit is composed of a few strong and durableparts which will be inexpensive to manufacture and will noteasily getout of orderunder-severe conditions of service.

IHaving thus described the invention, I claim: j y z 1. A shaving outfitcomprising a mug having an axial duct in the bottom, a cover for themug, and a base for the mug comprising an upper and lowercompartmentseparated by a transverse partition, the inner face of the base beingthreaded above and below the partition, the upper threads screwing ontothe base of the mug, said upper compartment comprising av magazine forshaving cream, A.

and a container for shaving tools having a marginal flange threaded toengage the threads of the base disposed below said partition. i

2.
